it's saturday evening and i'm one of the lonely souls around in hall, trying to study. even thong has gone home to celebrate his granny's bday. am supposed to be at my cuz's house baking cakes n cookies, but really, i'm choosing to mug over spending some good quality time with the folks.

i dunno why i've been blogging so much. i've been really distracted these few days while studying.. distraction has always been my thing, which is why i take so much longer to read my stuff. but even so, i dun recall being distracted to such an extent before. can't seem to concentrate on anything for long, and always thinking bout stuff.. issues in life and all. wanna blog bout these things some time.. to help put things in clearer perspective, or just for want of an outlet of expression. but right now i just dun have the time to reflect and ponder so much..

anyway my days now typically consist of eating, sleeping, studying, blogging and bathing. monotonous. maybe only sprinkled by some doses of meals outside and movies on the laptop. for which i'm thankful at least. and with which i embrace so enthusiastically as a form of escapism .

hmm, right now i'm utterly bored by the stats i'm reading in my textbook.. everyone who knows me know i hate stats n all things numerical. but it's something i can't avoid while studying psych. it doesn't stop at the 2 stats modules we had to take.. in fact all psych modules have stats.. some less some alot.. afterall we need stats to interpret all the results n implications, and for every module we gotta read lots and lotsa journals written by psychologists themselves.. which consist of the stats reports of the studies. almost all our core readings are such journals n reports.. piles and piles of them...harvard, cambridge, stanford.. any uni conceivable. most of the time i hate these readings. i'm utterly lost. at best i'm really numb. and i've still no idea why psychology is an arts subject. feel so cheated. it's a science in every other single uni. and also a science in every way i try to look at it.

oh my i sound so depressed.. ok talk bout something funny. that day ceci n i went to the big book shop at clementi, and that gal bought 10 pens (of all shapes, colours and sizes). haha. i'm suddenly reminded of this lecture some years back.. when the lecturer was saying something bout freudian theory.. so according to freud, things which are long n thin are phallic (sexual) symbols for gals. which of cos, all the gals poo-poohed at. then this guy in front of me was telling his friend, no wonder all the gals' pencil cases so big and full of pens. wat the..... anyway now we know why ceci bought 10 pens and i bought 3. wahaha.

okie i've many tests n other stuff coming up:
-intro to cybercrime 50%
-psychological assessment 20%
-social psychology 25%
-human psychophysiology 30%
-psychological assessment presentation 20%

and another string after this string.

the oscar's is coming up next mon.. and i haven't watch so many shows.. brrr. here's the list of shows i wanna/wish i can watch:
-dreamgirls
-babel
-the fountain
-letters to iwo jima
-miss potter
-paris, je t'aime
-ghost rider (but it's only cos of nicholas cage)

seems longer than my list of midterms.

of the shows/actors/actresses nominated i've watched little children n notes on a scandal. which are both quite good. am rooting for judi dench from notes on a scandal for best actress. but then i've not watched alot so can't really judge. but gotta say she's good. she acted so well it made u detest/psychologically fear her in the show. (edit: am also rooting for cate blanchett for best supporting! i think she was damn sexy in an x-factorish way...) the storyline of little children is good... hope the pedophile wins best supporting.

am so braindead now that i can't come up with any better vocab to describe things... so ciaos.
